XXXVIfiTH COKGBESS—FISST SESSIOH. COKOLU6IO>‘ OF SATURDAY’ H FEOO£ISDIN<Jf}. SESATB.f 1 On motion of Mr. ‘Wilson (mass.) the Senate pro ceeded, to the consideration of the bill equalizing the pay of United States soldiers 3Mr. Oonness (Oal.) -withdrew his amendment confining the benefits of the bill to those in. the ser vice from the passage ol the act. Mr. Sumner offered an amendment providing that, in cases where the Secretary or War shall be satisfied that persons of color have been mustered r intoJthe service at the rate of thirteen dollars per month, they shall be paid at the rate for previous services. j Mr. Grimes (Iowa) hoped that the Senator would withdraw his proposition, and that, from tins time forward, every soldier, whatever 'might be hia color, may receive the same pay; and it any abuses or acw of injustice arise they could be remedied by subsequent legislation. He hoped that the bill xntghtlbe allowed to stand on its merits without making it retrospective. ■* | Mr./Howe concnrred with the views Of the:Sena -1 tor frppt'lowa. j '• VHttr. Wilson moved to strike out the clause,in the giving colored troops the' same pay, Ah., except bounty, during the whole time •they.have been inthe service,and insert “fromand after the Ist day of J anuary, 18(11. 5 * ‘ Mr. Sumner said he would :not withdraw his without explaining that its provisions would only apply to a few regiments, and there fore there would be no great draft upon the trea sury. He did not think that the United Slates could afford at this time to do injustice to the colored troops. Mr. Johnson (Md.), in reply to Mr. Sumner, said that if the black'men of Maryland were as good as the black men elsewhere, why%make ex ceptions] They were all enlisted under the same law. If justice were done according to the views 'Of the Senator from Massachusetts, some SbOO,UUO, would be taken from the treasury, or, as he un- •derstands it, about 51,500,U00. All should be paid alike. Why did not Massachusetts pay those troops'berself] Mr. Fessenden said he understood that the co lored troops iefused to receive It. Hr. Wilson explained the circumstances un •der which the colored troops from Massachusetts . had refused to receive their pay. They held the goy •■ernmentto the pledges made to them, and wanted the full pay of SIS per month, or asked to be dis charged from the service. Mr. Johnson said they .were colored gentlem on • of extraordinary sensibilities. Mr. Grimes said that from the very outset his colleague (Mr. Harlan) and himself were in favor of putting the negro troops on an equality with whites. He was on the record.in this respect previous to the action of the Senator from Massa chusetts (Sumner). Mr. Summer said that in a public speech he had stated that while he was in favor of carrying the war into Africa, he was nr- ore in favor of carrying the African' into the war. [Laughter. ] ' Mr. GTimeseaid he was not only in iavor of car rying the Alrican into tie war,but for payinghim -$l3 rer month-and for placing him on a footing with other soldiers. If we were going back to pay these colored troops from Massachusetts, &c , why not pay those from Tennessee ] He was informed that there were some thirty regiments of th-se troops there. He thought there was trouble in the future to be apprehended from making the retro spective character of this bill indiscriminate. He sympathized with the gallant and patriotic young - men of the 54th and 55th Massachusetts (col «red) troops, but be could not help believing that, it was -on account of their action that the colored men. of the South Carolina regiments refused to receive their pay. *Mr. Cowan (Pa.), said that if we were going back for these colored men, he was also in favor of .• going back in favor of the white men who were our earliest volunteers, and had borne the^heat • and burden of the day. He was not in favor of • over-riding the statutes to do justice to these negro troops, until equal and exact justice had been done to the veteran white soldiers. When the country should be restored to its wonted prosperity, -we could do justice to all, but now it is exceed ingly dangerous. Tht amendment ol Mr. Wilson was then adopted. The amendment of Mr. Doolittle, providing that from the monthly pay of colored troops mustered into the service in the insurrectionary States the sum of three dollars per month shall be reserved to reimburse the expenses incurred by the United States in feeding and clothing the widows, children and parents of tne deceased, was rejected after some debate. .Mr. Carlile (W. Va.) said that in the o>d days -•of peace, the negroes had & holiday 'on every Saturday afternoon, and as all persons were equal .-under the law, and as half the afternoon has been spent in tbe service of the negro, he moved that the Senate do adjourn. [Great laughter.] At the instance of several Senators he withdrew his motion. Mr. Sumner proposed a proviso that in aUoases • of past services of colored troops where it shall - appear to the satisfaction of the Secretary of War, from the actual papers of enlistment, that the -troops were enlisted under the act of July. 1801, they shall be al'owed the pay promised by that act. Bejected; yeas 16, nays 21. Mr. Cowan offered a substitute for ihe bill as amended, providing that from and after the pas sage of this act all soldiers of the United States of the same arm of service shall receive like com ’ pens&tion. Mr. Cowan supported his amendment at length, - claiming that the negro must be regarded as a cit . izen under the constitution,as he received the pro tection of the laws. Mr. Saulsbury (Del.) said if that was the basis the Senator’s substitute, it was abhorrent to his views, tind he would not support it. The old fashioned term was “negro;” now they are “co lored citizens.” Mr. Howe would inquire whether the negroes were not colored in Delaware. Mr. Saulsbury doubted if they were as “color ed” as they were in Wisconsin, according to po pulation. He would nerer consent to equality, either political or social, with the negro. Mr. Cowan asserted that the negro had a legal . status under the constitution which protected him. Pending the action on the substitute of Mr. -Cowan, the Senate adjourned. LEAGUE ISLAND—VISIT OF THE HOUSE V B AVAL COMMITTEE. On Saturday the Committee on Naval Affairs of the House of Representatives visited League Island and Chester in charge of the Committee of Councils. Messrs. Rice, of Massachusetts; Griswold, of New York; Hollins, of Missouri; Edgerton, of Indiana; Morehead and Kelly, of Pennsylvania, of the Committee, were of the party, together with Messrs. Randall, Myers and O’Neil, Representatives from this city. Mr. BroomaLJ, of Chester, and a number of • gentleman from that town were present. By some mismanagement the hour of departure in the boat fiom Philadelphia was de- • layed so long that it was at low water when at League Island, and high water when at Chester, thus exhibiting the Island to some disadvantage. Notwithstanding th e, however, the members of •Congress who were not personally acquainted with the locality, expressed great surprise at find ing the Island different from what had been repre sented by parties opposed to the site. Instead of a swamp, they found good solid earth, and a glance at tbe situation was sufficient to establish its se curity against attack by water or land. Gentle men of the Board of Trade and Corn Exchange who have given the whole subject a careful and thorough examination, and who were present, ex plained to the Committee their grounds for urging League Island as the only proper site for the new Navy Yard. The visit did great good, as it gave the members -an opportunity of personally inspecting the loca lity and understanding tbe claims urged in its behalf. The party then proceeded to, Chester, whete the citizens entertained the gentlemen in -the most liberal and handsome manner. Upon the Tetuin to Philadelphia a banquet was given in the evening at the Continental Hotel Among the invited guests were the Judges of the Supreme 4ind other Courts, the heads of Departments, Ac. Mr. James Lynd, President of Select Council, presided. The first toast, “The President of tne United Spates, oneof nature’s noblest men,” was responded to by Hon. Alexander H. Rice, of Mass., Chairman of the. Committee on Naval Affair. The second toast, “The Union—it nnust be preserved,” was responded to by Hon. James S. Hollins, of Missouri In the course of his remarks he said “I am a citizen of Missouri; I am by birth, and rear ing,/and education, and marriage, and kindred, and interest, a Southern man, hut I thank God I am at the same time a. Union man.” [Cheers ], The third toast, “Our honored guests, tne Com mittee oil Naval Affairs—We are proud to wel come them to the hospitalities of our city,” was responded to by Hon. John A. Griswold, of New York. He said: «*l am satisfied that -these are the days of surprises. lam satisfied that no man has that power of omniscience by which he can tell from day to day, or from hour to hour, what may meet him at the next. “When I left ..Washington as a member, of the committee, I supposed I was to perform the legitimate duties devolving upon me. I did not expect, when I left the hotel this morning, as . one of the committee, that I was to be led through a series of entertainments, magnificent and hospitable to tbe highest degree. I did not -expect when I returned this evening, that I was to meet the official digniij, the intelligence and toe hospitality which are presenthere 10-night. I did not expect, when I entered this room, that I was to be called upon torespoud to any senti ment, and least of all that 1 should be called upon to respond in behalf of the Committee. But let me pass that and come to League Island, League Island to me beiore this morning was a myth. I can say, as a young lady, whose travels had not been very extensive, but who desired to convey a contrary impression, said, when she -was a kfd *if ehe had ever visited the Falla ,of Niagara. She replied that she had not seen the Falls, buthad heard them very JbjKbly spoken of. [Laughter.] So, I had never seen League Island, but I heard it very highly spoken of; and at times I have heard it not spoken | of it so highly.' I was told in Washington th it the committee who attempted to visit it found them selves unable to land ! [Laughter.] This was ex traordinary to me—that the island -should be so iso-., lated as to be beyond the reach of lauding from a boat.- [Laughter.] And not’ until to day has the explanation oome to my understanding. I itarned that the committee, instead of coming to Philadelphia, and instead of stopping at the Con tinental. like respectable people, and instead, of going from here directly to League Island, like the difinified committee from the House, trey undertook to approach League Island, by way of Chester! [Laughter.] After ray ex perience of to-day I am not at all sur prised that they could not land at League Island. [Laughter.] Whatever League Island may be in the future, it is fast becoming historic g'.ound. There are attacks and.defences. There are attacks that are violent in their character, and there are defences as spirited as the attacks are violent, and were I a Philadelphian I could oalv say 1 should wish no better representatives of my -interests than the gentlemen whonow compose the delegation. [Cheers.] " ; • The foiirth toast, ‘‘Andrew G-. Curtin, tho patriot statesman,” <fcc., was responded to by Hon. Thomas J. Bingham, Chairman of the Com mittee pf Ways and Means of the State legis lature. The fifth toast, “The Hon. Secretary of the Navy, under his administration our navy has grown to be amorg the loremost of the world, ” was responded to by Hon. William I). Kelley* who sketched the increase in the navy and in refer ring to the Navy Yard said he favored League Island, but it was not necestary to say one word about it, as League Island could take care of itself. "Secretary Welles was satisfied tbat the Navy Yard should be upon fresh water. • He desired to select the right location, and when it is demonstrated to him that the foundation of League Island is sound, Mr. Welles will be as enthusiastic in its favor as you are.. The sixth and last toast, “The Army and Navy,” was responded to by Hon. Samuel J. Randall, who, passing from his subject, said that th« Philadelphia delegation, whatever their pol itics might be, stand as a unit-in favor of League Island. [Cheers.] They believe, and I believe, hat the navy yard and tbe .iron-clads is a neces sity, and that we present the right location for it. [Cheers.] Owing to the lateness of the hour, tho remainder ! of the toasts were not announced, and the party j broke np at midnight. j BIRTHS, MARRIAGES _ AND DEATHS IN PHILADELPHIA.
